    I take it the issue your having is your getting no satellite signal on certain channels but you've ruled out the dish/lnb being at fault?

    I had lionel dorrington repair my power supply - He wasn't too keen on doing it at first but he did it after a bit of persuasion and me supplying the parts for him.

    What you need to buy is the following kits from satcure.co.uk - it should cos you no more than 20 euro's for all the parts and about another 20 to 30 for labour.

    Thomson Sky+ and Sky-HD PSU capacitor upgrade kit RELKIT 33j £10.95

    Plastic nuts and screws (kit) for replacing fan in HD only 50p

    If your box is refusing to turn on whatsoever you will also need this kit also

    Supplementary kit (see notes) SATKIT 33j £19.95

    Here is a link to the above parts.
